In general no, but YMMV.
Btw findClass is protected and does not deal with the creation
of array classes, probably findLoadedClass does but that is private.

You could have used loadClass (which uses the previous two)
of the right classloader, or better
Class.forName with the optional  classloader parm that can deal
with a  null classloader (meaning the bootstrap one) (the method is only Java
>= 1.2).

In general as long as possible avoiding to deal with classloaders
is the easier choice. Otherwise I would use Class.getClassLoader
everytime is possible and then Class.forName with the opt
classloader parm.
